AS an economic question, the culture
and propagation of fish is scarcely less i'm
portant than the raising of cattle for meats
and the production of cereals for bread
stuns. Yet few people ever stop to con-
sider how the fish they daily consume are
propagated. Fsh-culture in its most re-
strictlve sense, or hsh-breeding, must
sooner or later be resorted to in ali dense
ly-populated countries, for, with the MT.

out little to meet the natural demand for

Professor Baird says that therei
nothing to prevent fish from liv-
ing indefinitely, as it has no period
of maturity, but grows with each
year. He is responsible likewise
for saying that carp have attained
an age of two hundred years. He
also says that within fifty years a
pike was living in Russia whose age,
according to tradition, dated back
to the fifteenth century. Probably
some persons will doubt what is
said by Professor Baird about the
age a fish can attain. If they do,
they are simply doubling the best
known authority on fish. The
Russian minister says that in the
royal aquarium in st. Petersburg
there are fish to-day that have been
known by the records to have been
in it 14O years. Some of them are,
he says, over FIVE times as large as
when they were captured, while
others have not q own an inch. He
says there are sacred fsh kept in
some of the palaces in China that
are even older than these in Rus
sia. Goldfish have been known in
this country for oves dfty years-

A new trick learned from the ac-
tresses is to tint the ears for even
ing occasions. The feminine mind
has taken the notion that SO long
as men speak admiringly of pink
ears, an auricular deep blush may
be put OH to stay while desired.
Therefore when adoring themselves
for ball, opera, or other places Of
personal display, they rouge their
ears inside and out. AS the ada
cent portions of their heads and
necks are white, either naturally or
from powdering, the contrast is
rather startling Well, some of the
girls at Jerome Park had painted
ears on their frivolous heads. Leon
ard Jerome, boss committeeman,
gazed for a moment at one of them,
and then caught her in his arms,
held her tight and kissed her. She
was distant relative and he a vet
eran, but she got angry all the
same and asked him how he dared.
I" An old custom from the husking
BEES" he said. /" When you see a
red ear you can kiss the girls that
shows it,"

Boston Corbett, the man who
gained a reputation as the slayer of
John Wilkes Booth, has added
somewhat to his noto riety by ter
rorizing and capturing for a time
the Kansas House Of Representa-
tives. He was st the commence
ment of the Legislature appointed
Assistant Doorkeeper. On the
morning of the 18th he suddenly
became insane, and strapping on
two revolvers and a box of cart
ridges, drove a negro attendant
from the Representative hall. Ser
geant-at-Arms Norton attempted
to expostulate, when Corbett cooked
his revolver and, pointing it direct
at the officer, told him to travel.
He went. The n,addened man then
searched for Speaker Smith, and
meeting a member who somewhat
resembled the Speaker, was about
to fire when the member threw up
his hands and said he was not the
Speaker. The member was then
permitted to go on. Corbett then
took possession of the Speakers
gallery, and walking in front of the
doors held it during the entire fore
noon session, refusing to allow any
one to come near. Three city po-
licemen were called, but they would
not venture into the dark corridor,
and the slayer of Booth held pos
session. At II o'clock he sent
word down to the House to adjourn
or he would come down and ad-
journ it himself. The House ad-
iourned. Corbett was afterward
captured in the lower corridor, dis
armed, and taken to the police sta
ton. He was taken before the Pro-
bate Judge, adjudged insane, and
placed in an asylum.

Holes in stonework may be stop

kind of stone you wish to fill up to

out with liquid shellack; fill the
holes a little more than even or
flush with the surface, so as to leave
some to be rubbed off; it is always
best to have them too full than not
full enough.

Saturday Review.

Let us once more repeat the ad-
mirable words of Boorde Barely
malt maketh better ale than Oaten
malt, or any corn doth; it doth
engender gross humors, yet it max
eth a man strong" 1t would be
impossible to sum up the merits
and demerits of beer better than in
this phrase. Nothing has been said
against it and nothing has been
said for it in these latter days which
is not in one way or other reduci-
BILE to this. 1t does engender gross
humors, which the strong, whether
quite idle or quite bodily hard
working, can afford to ,contemn;
which the weak fear and flee, which
any man perhaps by using a just
regimen and taking plenty of exer-
else can conquer. But yet it max.
eth a man etrong-strong and solid
of wit, of sinews, of nerves, OF
temper, as hardly any food or
drink shall make him. All the
winc-drinking peoples have always
had the better of the water drink
ing; all the beer-drinking people
(who have had the wit to drink
what good wine they could get
likewise have had the better Of
the merely wine-drinking. Those
who say that beer is. not poetical
forget that the magnificent poety
of the scandinavian races sprang
from beer. Let US therefore for all
it's good humors cheish beer, and
that the one people who were too
much for the ten thousand them
selves were the beer-drinking Car
duchians.

unmindful Of his two wounds, and
and again the tiger turned and
sprang at its would-be master,
leaping straight at his breast and
striking full against it. Robinson
had not been quick enough, and he
was borne to the floor of the cage,
where he lay stunned and motion
less. the tiger lying with his fore
feet across his body.
As the keeper fell there was a
quick, loud cry Of dismay from the
people, who had with bated breath
watched this terrible combat, and
the beast, with his paws still upon
his victims breast, turned its head
to glare upon the people in front of
his cage. At this moment Byrne,
the headkeeper, appeared, forcing
his way through the excited crowd
clear up to the bars of the cage.
With him were two assistant keep
ers. to whom he gave directions,
and they went Immediately to the
rear of the cage, taking care that
the tiger did not see them as they
went. Bvrne held in his hand a
long pole, on the end of which was
a sharp spike. AS he reached the
bars he shouted at the tiger in a
loud, commanding tone, and, tell
ing the people to stand back, thrust
the spike into the animals flank.
With howl of rage King rose from
his position on the body of Robin
son and dashed himself against the
bars where Byrne was standing,
trying to reach his new enemy.
This was what the headkeeper
wanted, for at that moment the
two assistants appeared at the door
in the rear, ready to perform their
part in the rescue Byrne had
planned. Fortunately, Robinson
had fallen near the door, and as
Byrne kept up his combat with the
tiger, plunging the spike again and
again into his body, the assistants
quickly opened the door, grasped
the wounded and still insensible
man by the arms and jerked him
out of the cage. The whole thing
was done so rapidly that the door
was again closed and fastened be-
fore the infuriated beast discovered
that his prey had escaped him.
The intense excitement of the
spectators now found vent in
loud, ringing cheer, the noise of
which aroused Robinson from his
stupor. His fainting wife and his
frightened child were reassured by
the sympathizing people around
them, and they were soon with the
husband and father, whose wounds
were found to be comparatively
light, much to everybody's surprise.
His powerful physique had saved
him.
The tiger will soon recover from
the injury inflicted by the spike,
but Robinson will not be allowed
to enter his cage again, although he
says he will conquer the brute yet.

HENRY CLAY DEAN.

The Kansas City Times says of
the late Henry Clay Dean, This
many-sided intellectual giant-and
we refer solely to his intellect and
his heart in any analysis that may
be made of his characteristics sud-
denly passed away. He was
strange man in many respects, yet
one of the most genial and lovable
men, when once thoroughly under
stood and appreciated, ever known
in Missouri. Beneath an exterior
which could not always be easily
penetrated he carried the conscience
of a Christian and the heart of u
child. If the expression may be
permitted, he had two natures, that
of the warrior and that of the priest.
The hand that smote upon OCCASION
SO relentlessly and SO remorselessly
was no less prompt to soothe, to
heal and to make whole again. A
tale of sorrow moved him to in
slant response. Those who had no
friends always found him a friend
indeed. His good deeds were in

his means were larger by far than
any one supposed; but he neither
boasted of the first nor claimed for
the last any sort of recognition or
